North Hudson Tower Ladder 3 was dispatched to Kennedy Blvd. and 39th St., Union City, after a Hudson County traffic light pole collapsed onto busy Kennedy Boulevard at 39th Street, on the afternoon of May 16th. City police and county sheriff units shut down the boulevard, in both directions, creating a traffic nightmare in the densely populated area, until debris could be removed and low-hanging overhead power lines were cleared.
